Welcome to Litsy!

Happy to read this third series installment. [Full review to come . . . hopefully.]

Mostly this felt like Judith, Susie, and Becs just ran willy-nilly all over Marlow accusing half the town of the murder until they finally got it right. Judith and Susie, in particular, were obnoxious, trampling all over everyone‘s rights because they were police consultants. No walking map because I walked on the rec center‘s indoor track. #audiowalk

I think the reason I don‘t like this series as much as Thursday Night Murder Club is that these characters, especially Susie, jump to conclusions and make up scenarios that they then run around accusing everyone of until they finally land on the correct theory of the crime and the right criminal. There‘s no real basis for why they think a person is guilty, and that‘s annoying to me. #audiowalk

This series fills The Thursday Night Murder Club niche, although the characters are a little more annoying than those from TNMC. I do enjoy it though. This time Judith, Susie, and Becs are investigating the murder of Marlow‘s mayor. #audiowalk

“The Queen of Poisons” by Robert Thorogood

Themes: Murder Mystery, Friendship, 3rd in a series

Another solid hit from Robert Thorogood and the Marlow Murder Mavens; Judith, Suzie and Becks. I‘m so excited for the PBS/Masterpiece Theater show coming this fall and hope that this book gets a season 🤞 I hope there‘s more to come from these ladies!! 5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
